    Bloody mens’ clothes shops

    Bloody hell. Went to the shop last night to buy a shirt. Yet again I have bought a dark blue shirt thinking it was black. Now I’m sitting in the office and the woman next to me says it’s blue.

    Everyone knows that men are crap with colours, so why can’t they just put labels above the shelves saying ‘blue clothes’, ‘black clothes’, ‘green clothes’ etc?

    Why would you want a black shirt?

    Anyway, why not walk up to an assistant and say "I'd like a black shirt please"?
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

      The assistant's a man too so he probably can't see the difference either.

      Anyway, I want a black shirt because I usually wear black. At least I thought so. So there.

        I was about to suggest you put the item you're about to buy, next to another black item in the shop - to compare. But you wouldn't which items are black, hum.

        Or, wear something you KNOW is black and place the new item against it, to be sure.

        Or, just wear blue sometimes.
        Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

            I know, but it could all be so much better.

                    If you gave her more than 20p a week pocket money you might have gotten something nice.
